When this map was published:

Published as at the time of this map, c.1920:

Long before hostilities broke out, Hohenzollern ambition had made a great European war seem inevitable. The Hohenzollern made Prussia; Prussia made and dominated modern Germany; and modern Germany was impregnated with Bernhardi's gospel of world-power or downfall. She had accomplished much by commercial penetration, but became impatient. Her navy and army were ready; the Kiel canal was completed; Heligoland was fortified. She chose the Sarajevo murders as a pretext to put her power to the supreme test, and, as our map shows, nearly all the world was drawn in to her struggle.
